The present invention relates to an athletic device comprising at least one weight stack.

Universal gyms containing stations for several exercises are known. Also known are exercise machines designed to allow single or minor movements, such as biceps curl machines or rowing machines. Problems arise when an athletic or weight gym manager wants to enable a wide variety of exercises. The individual must deploy a large number of machines and occupy a relatively large floor space in the home or gym to acquire these exercises.

Another problem arises with currently known systems. The exercise must be carried out within the design characteristics of the machine. A finite number of positions can only be adapted to a range of adjustments. If an exerciser has larger or smaller than the "average" individual considered by the machine designer, or has special requirements, the exerciser will adjust existing equipment for optimal comfort and performance. Can struggle with. Larger exercisers will need properly sized equipment, which will be of little use to smaller exercisers who can barely fit the minimum settings of the equipment. Exercisers forced to live in wheelchairs may not find the device useful at all.

Moreover, further problems can arise with certain known exercise equipment. A single source of resistance, such as a weight stack, can provide resistance to which motion is performed. However, if the plates of the weight stack have excessively large mass increments between them, the exerciser must use either excessively light or excessively heavy weights from the weight stack, leading to muscle fatigue. It may not be possible to optimize the iteration of. Therefore, in some cases it may be useful to apply a smaller mass increment than that provided by the weight stack. Similarly, if the weight stack does not have sufficient mass, a particularly strong exerciser will not be able to enjoy the maximum benefit from exercising on such a machine. It may also be desirable to modify the nature of the resistance by adding an elastic band to the motion. As the movement progresses through its range of motion, resistance can change as the elastic band is stretched. Many known exercise machines do not adapt to the various sources for resistance.

Finally, it is known that the human body can lift different weights with different movements. An individual can usually squat with significantly more weight than the individual can do a bench press, and the bench press weight is usually smaller than what the individual can curl with his biceps. Become. So far, exercise machine manufacturers have designed different machines for each of those exercises, or have poorly addressed all of those exercises within a single universal gym. As a result, serious exercisers will need a multipurpose dedicated machine for optimal exercise and will require a gym with significant floor space.

Unexpectedly, based on decades of experience as a personal trainer, the applicant invented the universal gym. In some cases, the applicant's universal gym occupies a significantly smaller area in the home or gym, but can provide a wide range of nearly infinite exercise. In further cases, the applicant's universal gym may further employ attractive and decorative panels that cover the universal gym when not in use.

Friction can provide resistance, for example by applying a brake to a reciprocating or rotating device such as a flywheel.

At least one weight stack contained by the frame appears in some embodiments. In some cases, the resistor comprises two independent weight stacks contained by the frame. The weight stack is a rod with holes properly placed so that several plates of similar or different mass and the desired number of plates in the weight stack can be selected for a particular movement, respectively. With the device. Optionally, a pin or key with a spring loaded ball bearing at the tip can connect the desired number of plates in the weight stack to the rod. At one end of the rod, the pulley can connect the rod, thereby a desired number of plates in the weight stack, to a cable that lifts the desired number of plates from the weight stack when pulled.

A cable routed around the frame selectively connects the weight stack to the motion attachment point via one or more pulleys. In general, the plates of the weight stack will move up and down when the exercise is performed, however, perfect verticality is not required. Cables with one or more pulleys translate the vertical movement of the plate from the weight stack in the preferred direction at the motion attachment point. The motion attachment point is where the cable terminates and allows attachment of the motion engagement device. Any suitable motion engagement device, such as a handgrip, ankle strap, torso strap, head strap, barbell, dumbbell, or equivalent, or a multivector extension device as described herein, may be used. Can be used. As used herein, barbell generally means a device intended for a two-handed grip, and dumbbell generally means a device intended for a one-handed grip. Optionally, the barbell or dumbbell can accept additional mass in the form of a weight plate and may optionally have one or more elastic band attachment points. Thus, in some cases, the barbell or dumbbell engages the weight stack through motion attachment points, floating motion attachment points (see below), optionally accepting one or more weight plates, and optionally one. Engaging with the above elastic bands, thereby providing a highly selective and variable resistance to the exerciser. As can be understood, weights such as those provided by weight stacks or free weight plates provide stable resistance, while elastic bands generally provide less resistance when the band is slightly stretched. However, as the stretch increases, the resistance increases.

At least one floating pulley is removable and adjustable attached to the frame. In some cases, the floating pulley binds to one or more of the first vertical accessory receiving ports, one or more of the second vertical accessory receiving ports, or a combination thereof. This allows it to be removable and adjustable attached to the frame. In other cases, the floating pulley is coupled to one or more of the first horizontal accessory receiving ports, one or more of the second horizontal accessory receiving ports, or a combination thereof. This allows it to be removable and adjustable attached to the frame. Floating pulleys are usually removable because they can be completely removed from the device without the need for any special tools. Floating pulleys are adjustable in the sense that they can be securely attached to the frame via any of several accessory receiving ports. The floating pulley has an extending cable having a first end on the opposite side of the second end. One of the two ends can be attached to a motion attachment point and the other end provides a floating motion attachment point to which any suitable motion engagement device can be attached. Therefore, the floating pulley can be installed in any suitable accessory receiving port within the frame, and then one end of the extending cable is attached to the cable of the frame connected to the weight stack. .. The motion attachment point on the frame can then be moved so that there is no slack in some cables. The floating pulley can have any suitable number of pulleys. For example, a floating pulley can have a single pulley wheel. In another embodiment, the floating pulley can have two pulleys and the extending cable passes between the two pulleys.

The cables connecting the weight stacks can be routed around the frame in any suitable manner. Cables can, in some cases, extend along the outside of the frame. In other cases, the cable can be routed inside the frame at least in part of its path. The cable, including the extending cable, which is useful according to the invention, can be any suitable cable. In some cases, multi-wire woven or stranded steel cables coated with a suitable flexible polymer can be used. Often, the ends of such cables are optionally terminated with loops reinforced with small metal holes. In a further case, a pulley stop, such as a small spherical rubber stopper, may appear shortly before the end of the cable end. The pulley stop is, in some cases, designed to prevent the end of the cable from unintentionally exiting the motion attachment point or floating pulley.

The apparatus comprises a frame having a vertical member and a horizontal member. Any suitable number of vertical and horizontal members can be used. Vertical and horizontal members can be made from any suitable material such as, for example, steel, aluminum, structural polymers, and combinations thereof. In some cases, the frame comprises a tube. The tube can have any suitable cross section, for example circular, oval, polygonal, rectangular, or square. At least some of the vertical members of the frame have a first vertical accessory receiving port having an axis in the first direction and a second vertical accessory receiving port having an axis in the second direction. Have. Having an axis in one direction means that the accessory receiving port can receive and anchor the rod-like structure. This is useful, for example, to secure the motion attachment point. For another embodiment, the bar can enter the accessory receiving port, thereby assisting in exercising against the bar, allowing the exerciser to use the bar to perform chin-ups or dips. Alternatively, the elastic band can be secured by the bar. The accessory receiving port can have any suitable shape, for example circular, oval, square, or polygonal. In some cases, the accessory receiving port comprises two openings in the tubes that make up the frame. The rod-like structure enters the first opening in the opposite surface of the tube, travels through the tube and exits from the second opening in the opposite surface of the tube. Thus, the two openings provide sufficient support for the rod-like structure.

It can be noted by those skilled in the art that the vertical members do not have to be exactly vertical and the horizontal members do not have to be exactly horizontal. Any suitable member can be included, for example, a curved member, a member that adheres to a strictly vertical or non-horizontal angle, and a combination thereof. The vertical member is a member having a vertical side surface, and the horizontal member is a member having a horizontal side surface. Discrimination between a vertical member and a horizontal member can be accomplished by any suitable method. For example, a member with a larger angle with respect to the horizontal can be considered a vertical member when a member with a smaller angle with respect to the horizontal is present. A frame constructed from members that are all positioned at 45 degrees to the horizontal can be said to include vertical members.

In certain embodiments, at least some of the horizontal members of the plurality of horizontal members have a first horizontal accessory receiving port having an axis in the first direction and an axis in the third direction. It has a second horizontal accessory receiving port. In some cases, the first direction is "front to back" and the second direction is "left to right". Both of those directions can be horizontal and parallel. In further cases, the third direction can be "top to bottom". Therefore, the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction can all be perpendicular to each other, and this need not be true in all situations. Some orientations can be oriented in any suitable manner with respect to each other and with respect to horizontal and vertical directions.

Slidably adjustable means that the motion attachment point can be moved along the member and then fixed at a specific point on the member. Fixing the motion attachment point can be achieved through any suitable means. For example, a spring load pin or rod-like structure on the motion attachment point can engage the accessory receiving port, thereby anchoring the motion attachment point at the accessory receiving port. Optionally, the kinetic attachment point can be removed from the frame and reattached to a different member, otherwise the kinetic attachment point is single without the use of tools to reconstruct the device. Can only slide along the members of. In some cases, the vertical member has a vertical length and comprises a first vertical accessory receiving port and a second vertical accessory receiving port over substantially the entire vertical length. In a further case, the horizontal member has a horizontal length and comprises a first horizontal accessory receiving port and a second horizontal accessory receiving port over substantially the entire horizontal length. Having an accessory receiving port substantially across the length means greater than at least 50%, greater than 60%, greater than 70%, greater than 80%, or greater than 90% of the length.

In some cases of the invention, one or more doors can be attached to the frame. Optionally, the at least one door is pivotally mounted on at least one vertical member among the plurality of vertical members of the frame.

Optionally, one or more footers can stabilize the abdominal exercise board.

Unexpectedly, Applicants have invented devices and methods for moving against multiple resistances with different vectors or directions. For example, gravity can pull the free weight downwards, allowing the exerciser to lift the weight upwards against gravity. Now assume that the elastic band under tension is applied to the movement of the exerciser and that the elastic band is oriented in a direction other than downward, i.e. parallel to gravity or in coordination with weight. An elastic band that pulls in any direction other than horizontal or vertical provides a wider variety of muscles to the exerciser who lifts the weight vertically, which may not be involved if the exerciser only lifts the weight. Will be forced to use. This multivector resistance motion can be extraordinarily beneficial. For example, joints such as shoulders, knees, ankles, elbows, and wrists can be strengthened by exercising the exerciser against two or more resistances with different vectors. Significantly, the apparatus of the present invention provides an opportunity for a wide variety of vector combinations for resistance motion.

Therefore, in some cases, the multivector extension device for the device to move against resistance comprises a brace for removable and adjustable attachment to the frame of the device and multiple accessory receiving ports. , Multivector extension arm and multivector extension arm splicing the multivector extension arm to the brace, while allowing significant freedom of movement for the brace, and multiple accessory receiving ports.

It comprises at least one motion attachment point receptor that is removably attached to the multivector extension arm via.

Any suitable brace can be used. For example, the brace may include a spring load pin operated by a knob for engaging the frame of the device. Moreover, the material of the multivector extension device is not limited. For example, the multivector extension arm can include square tubes made from any suitable material such as, for example, steel, aluminum, polymers, and combinations thereof. Any suitable motion engagement device, such as a one-handed grip, two-handed bar, ankle strap, torso strap, head strap, or equivalent, can be used in conjunction with the multivector extension device.

Similarly, any suitable motion attachment point receptor such as, for example, a J-hook for receiving an elastic band, an eyebolt for receiving a carabiner for selectively connecting to a weight stack, and a combination thereof. , Can be used. The motion attachment point receptor and motion engagement device can be attached to the multivector extension device in any suitable manner. In some cases, the motion attachment point receptor or motion engagement device can include a spring load pin that selectively anchors the receptor or device to the multivector extension device.

Occasionally, the multivector extension arm comprises at least two telescopic members and the plurality of accessory receiving ports comprises a plurality of telescopic member accessory receiving ports. The telescopic member can be nested, i.e., one member fits inside the other. In such cases, one of at least two telescopic members can be selectively secured to the multivector extension arm using at least one spring load pin. When the telescopic member is present, a motion engaging device, such as a one-handed grip, is removably attached to the multivector extension arm via a third accessory receiving port among multiple telescopic member accessory receiving ports. be able to. Similarly, motion attachment point receptors such as J-hooks or eyebolts are removably attached to the multivector extension arm via a fourth accessory receiving port among multiple telescopic member accessory receiving ports. be able to.

A further example of the present invention provides a structure in which a multivector extension device or a component thereof is not struck against the frame of the device. For example, in some cases, the brace of the multivector extension device comprises a support cone positioned around a ball joint to protect the frame from contact by the multivector extension arm. The support cone can be made from any suitable material such as, for example, natural rubber, synthetic rubber, polyurethane, silicone, or a combination thereof.

In a similar fashion, the multivector extension support can also prevent the multivector extension device or another device from contacting the frame of the device. The multivector extension support is an elastic support that is attached to the frame to receive the frame and protect it from contact by the multivector extension device, with braces for removable and adjustable attachment to the frame of the device. And can be included. In some cases, the brace comprises a spring load pin for engaging with the frame of the device. In a further case, the elastic support defines a recess for accepting the multivector extension device. Such a recess can accept a multivector extension device or similar device when not in motion. Any suitable material can be used for the elastic support. One example provides an elastic support consisting of natural rubber, synthetic rubber, polyurethane, silicone, or a combination thereof.

A method of moving against a plurality of resistances having a plurality of vectors also appears in some embodiments of the present invention. Employing a multivector extension device as described herein, one such method is to attach a first resistor to a first motion attachment point receptor and a second resistor. In the step of attaching to the second motion attachment point receptor, the first resistance has a first vector, the second resistance has a second vector, and the first vector has a second vector. Unlike the two vectors, the first vector and the second vector thereby form multiple resistors with multiple vectors, a step and a motion engagement device with respect to multiple resistors with multiple vectors. Includes a step of moving and thereby moving against multiple resistors with multiple vectors.

The resistors can be arranged so that the directions of several vectors are oriented in any suitable combination. In some cases, the vectors or their components are aligned or opposed to each other. Also note that the relative orientation of the vector can change as the motion of motion is performed. The two vectors, which are initially at right angles to each other, will not necessarily form a right angle throughout the motion of the motion. This change in relative orientation is advantageous and can increase or decrease overall resistance at different locations in the movement of motion. Also, the direction of motion of motion must be consistent with, or can be relative to, one or more vectors of multiple resistances applied, or the direction of motion of motion must be aligned with the vector of any resistance. do not have. Of course, care should be taken to ensure that multiple resistances do not overstress or injure the exerciser. Initially, a small resistance is recommended.

In some of those cases, the mobile member is a first mobile accessory receiving port having an axis in the first direction of movement between the first end and the second end. And a second mobile accessory receiving port having an axis in the second moving direction.

Alternatively, the mobile member can be designed to assist in contact with parts of the human body. For example, the stretch compartment may consist of a foamed polymer, a cushion, or a combination thereof. Any suitable foamed polymer can be used. In some cases, the foamed polymer is selected from latex foam rubber, polyurethane foam, styrene butadiene foam, or a combination thereof.

The mobile member can be secured to the frame of the device by any suitable structure. In one embodiment, the first frame engaging device comprises a first rod having a first port for receiving a first retention key, the first rod being a first member of the frame. It is adapted to enter the first accessory receiving port of. In another embodiment, the second frame engaging device optionally comprises a second rod having a second port for receiving a second retention key, the second rod of which is of the frame.
